Is it possible to install Skype on Fedora 11 ?

Hello,
I tried to install Skype on Fedora 11 on a 64 bit machine (x86_64).
I downloaded the rpm from Skype
website and tried to install. There is no rpm for f11 in Skype
website. Only rpms
for fedora 6 and 7; See:
http://www.skype.com/intl/en/download/skype/linux/choose/

so I downloaded the rpm for fedora 7.
These rpms (also for Fedora 6) are for 32 bit machines. So when
trying to install the skype rpm,
I get errors which tell me that I need to install qt 32 bit.
The errors I get are :
...
libQtCore.so.4 is needed by skype-2.0.0.72...
libQtDBus.so.4 is needed by skype-2.0.0.72...
libQtGui.so.4 is needed by skype-2.0.0.72...
...

So I tried to install qt for 32 bit, and it failed with Transaction Check Error:

yum install qt.i386

....
....
